# Cobalion #100/101 — Noble Victories

## Summary

Cobalion leads the Swords of Justice trio, and fans of Unova's Black and White generation still hold it in real affection as the Metal member of that group. A high-rarity slot in Noble Victories keeps it among the set's more sought-after Basics, with 5ban Graphics credited on the artwork. At a $66 modelled guide, with 6 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.16 out of Black Bolt; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $6,216 and a 11% observed gem rate putting about $410 of expected profit per submission.
